These Pesto Pinwheels from All That Brings Joymake me wish the holidays were still around.Of course I pinned them to our Food, Glorious Food Boardso I can find them when I need 'em.The pesto pinwheels...

Remind me of the Kalamata and Feta Pinwheels we make all the time.Quick, delicious. Be sure to make more than you expect to need.They disappear in a snap.

One person's "ornament" is another person's everyday decor.These Pinecone Ornaments made from maps - make me smile :)Nice job, Turtles and Tails! So, cute. Creative. Simple.I might make some of these, just to hang here and thereto to remind us of our travels.

Our family loves to take trips,hence our travel blog, Feasting on Americana. (Geesh, I really need to show blog some love.)Anyway...I have a special love for maps.

For Christmas we did a Map Star Garland - which has become our rustic travel garland...and is simply hanging from the knob of the standing lamp in our living room.LOL.

Raise of hands...how many of you made a prediction to eat healthier in the New Year?Yeah, me too. This Hot Curried Fruit from Becki's Whole Life is a nice change of pace.I wouldn't have thought to spice things up like this - I'm glad she linked up to our party.

If you are in the market for other healthy-ish recipes,you can hop over to our How Healthy category in our sidebar.

Okay...now, It's Time to Party!
